“Boohoo, Brother Nianfan, they are so pitiful.” Nanan and Dragin also cried.
Li Nianfan sighed softly and shook his head.
The five female ghosts were indeed tragic. They were tortured and abused, it was surprising that they were still kind.
Actually, what they did was kind of like brothel business—they were ghosts and masculine energy was their paynt.
They were truly pretty, aside from the life-absorbing part.
He looked at the sobbing ghosts and said, “The shyness of the dayti’s covered by a silken sleeve; the lancholy of springti makes it hard to rise and dress. A priceless gem is more easily found than a man who has a heart.”
The five female ghosts suddenly stopped crying. They jolted. They dazedly looked at Li Nianfan with teary red eyes. They reminisced the poem.
‘A priceless gem is more easily found than a man who has a heart.’
That sentence perfectly described their situation. It went straight to their hearts.
Those n were obsessed with them. They swore to protect and die for them, but they fled faster than a rabbit when they were in danger.
As a prostitute, they were already used to it. Otherwise, they would not be so much in despair that they committed suicide at the lake.
That cultivator knew them best!
Suddenly, they did not feel afraid to look at Li Nianfan. They felt touched. They blushed with tears in their eyes.
They felt like it was all worth it to et such a man like that and to hear that poem.
A lady composed herself and got up. She bowed at Li Nianfan and said softly, “Sir, please accept my respect.”
The other female ghosts followed. “Please accept our respect.”
“It was too bad that I did not et you earlier. Otherwise, I would have done anything to satisfy you, sir.”
“Only you understood in the entire realm.”
“Sir, if you can be a guest of my opening show, I will be happy to death.”
The five of them spoke while leaning close to Li Nianfan. They looked at Li Nianfan admiringly.
Since the beginning of ti, won have loved talented n, even prostitutes, and especially when his poem resonated with their weak spot. They could not help themselves.
Li Nianfan was inspired to recite the poem. He did not expect the poem to be so powerful. He basically got the pass for free prostitutes.
Nanan and Dragin leaped in front of Li Nianfan at the sa ti. They opened their arms like chicken protecting their food. “What are you all trying to do to Brother Nianfan? Don’t co near us, back up. Back up!”
The five female ghosts imdiately snapped out of it. They said, “It is an insult to be near him as prostitutes. We are truly embarrassed.”
Li Nianfan softly coughed. He changed the topic and said, “Ladies, I have a few questions.”
The five ghosts said sincerely without a second thought, “Please ask us, sir. We will tell you anything.”
They looked happy to be able to help Li Nianfan.
It was aweso to be cultured, even ghosts could be impressed.
Li Nianfan smiled. Then, he asked excitedly, “Can ghosts cultivate?”
“Yes.”
A lady nodded. Then, she shook her head and said, “However, we don’t cultivate. Our feeding on masculine energy is like ordinary people eating als. We don’t grow from it, it’s not considered cultivation.”
Another ghost said, “Sir, usually, ghosts don’t cultivate. The more powerful or vengeful ghosts can devour other ghosts to be stronger. But it’s also not proper cultivation.”
Li Nianfan nodded and furrowed his brows. “That ans only Onis can cultivate.”
‘Of course. Why would ghosts be able to cultivate? If that was the case, anyone could kill themselves to beco cultivators. It was outrageous.’
Li Nianfan continued to ask, “Can ordinary people cultivate?”
The five ghosts shook their heads simultaneously. “We don’t know that.”
Li Nianfan was slightly disappointed.
“Mr. Li, I was previously at the side of the Ghost King. I did hear sothing,” said the lady who played the flute.
Li Nianfan arched his eyebrow. “What is it?”
“They seed to be looking for a book. They said that whoever got the book can be cultivators. They can beco the Ghost God. I guess that it might be a way to cultivate.”
“A book?” Li Nianfan was intrigued. He saluted and said, “Thanks for the info, lady.”
He was curious about the book but did not think much about it. He knew he had no right to have any ideas about it.
Li Nianfan continued to ask, “Ladies, do you know where I can run into an Oni?”
“Sir, you can go to Sapphire City. We escaped from there. They are forming a ghost army there to fight back with the Onis.”
Another ghost said, “Sir, that place is a ghost town. Countless ferocious ghosts. If you go there, it would be dangerous.”
Li Nianfan asked for directions. He nodded and said, “I got it, thanks.”
The five ghosts looked at each other when they realized Li Nianfan had no more questions. They bit their lips and bowed at Li Nianfan. They said in a low voice, “Sir, we should go.”
Li Nianfan was slightly surprised. “You are planning to... go back?”
“We are delighted to talk to you today, sir. If we can reincarnate, we hope to be by your side to serve you, sir.”
“Sir, before we go, please allow us to dance for you.”
They played the zither and flute again.
The five female ghosts were flaunty in their breezy chiffon dresses. They danced under the moonlight.
The dance was no longer the dance of prostitutes. They danced like elegant snowflakes.
Gradually, the zither and flute faded out. Their figures also started to fade.
“Farewell, sir.”
The five figures vanished with a farewell.
The moonlight was still bright, the night was still chilly. It was as if what happened was just a dream.
The n beca sober when the music faded away. Then, they hurriedly knelt on the ground. They said fearfully, “We were entranced by ghosts. Please forgive us for disrespecting you, cultivators. Please spare our lives.”
Li Nianfan shrugged it off. “Go back to your lives.”
He did not return to the village. He walked toward Sapphire City with Dragin, Nanan, and Blackie.
At the Above Immortal Realm, Cloud Tribe Sect.
A lot of clouds flew around in mid-air. It was very chaotic.
Soone frantically yelled from within, “Quick, quick, activate the Defense Spell. Get in position, everyone!”
“Where is Taishang Elder? I’m asking you, where is Taishang Elder? Hurry up and go get Taishang Elder!”
An elder walked out from the Cloud Tribe Sect, he did not look happy at all, “Why do you need to disturb the Taishang Elder? Where is the Sect Master? Isn’t the Sect Master with you all? Why isn’t he back yet?”
“Big Elder, the Sect Master is goners!”
“Goners?” The Big Elder was taken aback, “What do you an?”
“He evaporated. Not even a hair was left!”
“He’s dead?”
His jaw dropped. The Big Elder was in disbelief. “How did that person in the Immortal Realm do that? What’s going on? Who is that person in the Immortal Realm?”
“No ti to explain. They are incoming. Get the Taishang Elder.”
“Taishang Elder cannot be disturbed. Don’t panic, tell how many people we are dealing with.”
“A few Taiyi Golden Immortals, and a lot of Golden Immortals.”
“How many people do we have?”
“We have three Golden Immortal elders and...”
“Alright, say no more. I’ll go get the Taishang Elder!”
